Weeks
of speculation over who would become Mitt Romney’s 2012 running
mate ended with a bang, as the Romney Campaign announced Wisconsin
Rep. Paul Ryan standing on the deck of the WWII battleship USS
Wisconsin.

Human
Events named Ryan Conservative
of the Year for 2011. On one hand, with so few real conservatives
in congress these days, he didn’t have a lot of competition for
that title in 2011. But on the other hand, Ryan’s steady record
of core conservative values and the backbone to pursue the right solutions
for America in the House, well-earned Ryan that title, as Human
Events chronicles.

Ryan
seems to have the right stuff -- an intellectual grasp for the details
and still a Midwestern common sense understanding of the most basic
American concepts, like saving America from fiscal bankruptcy, economic
stagnation and a European-style Marxist entitlement state.

“Just
look at what happened across the Atlantic,” Ryan told Human
Events in a year-end interview. “We have to avoid that. We
must reclaim our founding principles of economic freedom and free markets.
We must preserve the American Idea.”

No
one in government today has worked as hard as Ryan to develop a detailed
and realistic Path
to Prosperity. No one in government has demonstrated the backbone
Ryan has, to stand toe-to-toe
against the international socialist Obama regime and call them out
for their con-man accounting and fuzzy-budget propaganda used to trick
unsuspecting citizens into voting for national bankruptcy.

As
a result, over 500,000 Drudge readers gave an overwhelming approval
of Paul Ryan as VP running mate for the 2012 GOP ticket, with over 82%
of respondents supporting Ryan enthusiastically. Drudge has a broad
cross-section of readers, which makes that poll of over 500,000 very
significant, as opposed to polling data from hardcore right or left
web sites.

Romney
has struggled with the conservative base of the GOP. But Ryan brings
to the ticket the kind of conservative values GOPers had hoped for in
a Romney running mate. With 82% approving, only 10% opposed and 7% uncertain,
no GOP candidate since Reagan has received this kind of support from
American voters.

Ryan
is likely one of only two people in America today who could have pulled
this much support from American voters, the other also being from Wisconsin,
Gov. Scott Walker, who has turned Wisconsin around in short order with
tough choices and put down numerous assaults from left-wing labor unions
while doing it.

That
good ole fashioned Midwestern conservative backbone is exactly what
our nation is in dire need of today, when Americans of all political
stripes are frightened of their future, and sick and tired of being
sick and tired.

Moreover,
voters have already grown sick of Obama’s left-wing agenda that
has driven our great nation to the brink of catastrophe, and his endless
excuses for the legendary list of policy failures over the last four
years.

The
fact is Obama-Clinton is a failure on a scale never before seen in America.
Not only were his leftist notions of wealth confiscation and redistribution
doomed to fail from the start, as those concepts have left many nations
around the globe in ruin, he is not even popular with his Marxist
core anymore.

Not
since Carter and his self-inflicted economic calamity, gasoline crisis
and Middle East disasters, has any administration been so unpopular
across all political divides. Even the left-wing labor unions that put
Obama and Democrats in power have pulled
their funding from Obama and Democrats heading into the 2012 election.
Obama has far surpassed Carter in terms of total failure across the
policy spectrum, driving America into bankruptcy and placing the Muslim
Brotherhood in charge.

Despite
all media efforts to prop up the Obama regime with false
economic and unemployment
reporting, the people can feel the pain created by left-wing policies
aimed at propping up left-wing causes at the expense of prosperity that
can only come from individual economic freedom.

Like
most American conservatives, my first choice for GOP presidential candidate
was not Mitt Romney. Had Romney chosen a running mate who was more moderate
like himself, or even worse, someone
ineligible for office like Obama, I could not have cast a vote for
Romney in November even though I know that four more years of Obama
would most certainly end America as we have always known her.

While
Romney and Ryan may not be as sexy on the campaign trail as the current
Teleprompter-in-Chief,
they are very real men with very real convictions towards turning America
in the right direction, away from international Marxism and towards
good ole fashion American sovereignty, security and free-market prosperity.

The
10% of voters who supported Ron Paul are not happy with Romney or Ryan,
and they wouldn’t be happy with anyone who does not wear the modern
secularist libertarian label.

However,
I do recommend that Ron Paul be named to the Board
of Governors for the Federal Reserve.

82%
of Americans seem the think Ryan was just the right pick for Romney
and the last 7% will likely come along as they get to know more about
Romney-Ryan
2012. I agree…

Americans
who stand for God and Country will stand with Romney and Ryan. Leftists
will continue to hope that Obama will change and hardcore libertarians
will always want it their way or the highway.

Most
importantly, Romney-Ryan represents a very real contrast to Obama-Clinton.
(Biden is just an old
DNC village idiot who never added any value to Obama or played any
significant role in Obama’s administration. It has always been
the Barry & Hillary show. Biden is around just to make
Obama look smarter than he actually is...)

In
stark contrast, Paul
Ryan took Obama head-on and exposed him for the lying fool he truly
is. While Obama’s Democrats dive deep into Washington D.C. political
sludge tossing, Romney and Ryan take the high road, speaking simple
truth to the American people and promising to lead America back to the
principles and values that once made America the greatest nation ever
known to mankind.

There
is a clear choice now for the American people, two private and public
sector success stories compared to an empty suit with a blank résumé
and a history of failed policies and broken promises.

Are
Romney or Ryan perfect candidates? There is no such thing as perfect
politicians because there is no such thing as perfect human beings.

At
a time when I was almost without hope for a GOP ticket I could support
with enthusiasm, I find that the combination of Romney and Ryan strikes
the right balance for not only a successful GOP ticket in 2012, but
a solid administration to begin reversing the damage done to my country
by Obama and Clinton over the last four years.

That’s
something I can get excited about….and 82% told Drudge the same
thing!

I
don’t endorse candidates because my endorsement is meaningless.
But I will be in the voting booth on November 6th, casting my vote to
remove Obama-Clinton from power and right after that, I will spend every
day that follows, lobbying Romney and Ryan to bring criminal charges
of treason against Obama, Clinton and many more, who have worked around
the clock for the last four years to destroy my kids future.
